148 west 119th street

Built in 1900, this lavishly restored townhouse at 148 West 119th Street is on one of Harlem‘s most desirable blocks in the Mount Morris Park Historic District. Constructed as part of one of the neighborhood’s first developments, the four-story Italianate brownstone has been bestowed with a renovation worthy of a decorator show house, with no expense or luxury spared (and lots of marble, mirrors and chandeliers). Two fully loaded terraces add outdoor living to mix, and details like central air, radiant floor heat and high-end appliances keep everything running smoothly. Bonus: there’s a studio apartment on the ground floor.
